“”I just finished reading The Haj””

An excellent book....I’m due to read it again... Worth the time for everyone to read it.

Yes, a very good book. It gives an excellent history on this subject.

I posted a chapter of it on FR not too long back:

Trivia : The guy who organized the Virginia paintball terrorists around 911 was Iraqi-American Imam Ali A. Timimi. He was also associated with Ft. Dietrich and the 2001 anthrax case Mueller was “investigating.”

Another Tamimi:

Ahlam Tamimi, a Hamas terrorist and current resident of Amman, Jordan’s capital, who has been the subject of a US Department of Justice arrest warrant since 2016. On Aug. 9, 2001, Tamimi orchestrated the suicide bombing of the Sbarro pizza restaurant in downtown Jerusalem that claimed the lives of 15 people. Tamimi deliberately targeted the pizzeria during the lunchtime rush, where it tends to be filled with parents and children, causing more than 100 wounded in the attack as well.

Arrested by the Israeli security forces and sentenced to 16 consecutive terms of life imprisonment, Tamimi served just eight years. She was then released, along with more than 1,000 other convicted Palestinian terrorists, in the 2011 deal between Israel and Hamas that secured the freedom of Gilad Shalit, an Israel Defense Forces’ soldier who had been held captive for years in the Gaza Strip....
